Proud of You Campaign

The standard of education in the borough of Waltham Forest had once again improved and we were asked to create an awareness campaign to highlight the council’s commitment to support and invest in schools to continually improve them.

A group of students with particular success stories were chosen to lead the campaign. They were photographed and placed within the word ‘proud’ to portray the council’s support playing an integral part of the increased success.

A second phase of the campaign was developed from teachers perspectives telling their success stories from the classroom.

Rubicon

When designing a folder for Rubicon Estates the key requirements were to show they are based in Limehouse, it had to be a little unusual and have something of a wow factor.

We briefed a photographer to take lots of images of local interest which we ran across the front and back cover so anyone who knew Limehouse would instantly be familiar. The corner of the cover was die cut to reflect their logo and be a little unusual and the wow factor came from a photograph of Limehouse basin which was taken in three sections, stitched together and printed across the whole inside of the folder to make one stunning panoramic.

Thompson & Bryan

Disaster recovery specialist Thompson & Bryan approached us wanting to redesign their website.

Thompson & Bryan has an amazing trading history dating back to 1867 but felt their website wasn’t aging as well, so they asked us to bring it up to date. Their key requirements were to ensure the site informs when they were established, to make people want to read what can be a dull subject and finally, appear visually different from their competitors.

The new responsive website we created is very image led with the information broken down into sections to make it interesting and easier to absorb. With a unique menu system and the fixed full width background images creating an intriguing reveal effect as you scroll down the page, Thompson & Bryan’s brand is now firmly in the 21st century.

Coventry Prospectus

We were pleased to win the design and print tender for Coventry council and one of the projects we’ve worked on is the CHOICE Prospectus.

The Adult Education Service in Coventry offers a choice of courses in a wide range of subjects, has venues across the city and produces a 44 page publication with 130,000 printed and distributed to residents.

The council wanted the prospectus to appeal to all age groups, look welcoming and inclusive. We achieved this by designing a pictorial cover that shows the diversity of CHOICE learners.

We also produced it as an interactive course finder that users can look for a course on a particular subject, browse courses at specific venues and browse courses in one of the three Adult Education Service districts online.

Plastic Fantastic

Due to the ongoing success of the previous recycling campaign we created for the London Borough of Waltham Forest the council decided to expand the campaign to include a range of other materials, including a number of plastics previously excluded.

Working with the council communications team we felt that the best way to show the range of items now included was to create a suite of illustrations that could be used over all the elements of the campaign from billboards, press ads, flyers and an information pack that has been distributed to every household in the borough.

The final design was both eye catching and informative across all communication channels, a successful outcome to quite a complicated brief.

The Royal Duchess

A slice of modern east end life at the Broadway theatre

The Broadway Theatre was staging the play The Royal Duchess Superstore which tells the story of Terry, recently returned to East London following a long stretch in prison, highlighting the changes that have taken place in his local area and Terry’s struggles to cope with his new environment, typified by the fate of his favourite pub, the Royal Duchess, which has become a corner shop.

We were asked to design a typographic title that captured the conflict between the old and new east end. We achieved this by the superimposition of the neon sign on the classic Victorian pub lettering to show how handcrafted signage is now superseded by contemporary technology.

Label

An independent men’s clothing suppliers were launching a new clothes range and asked for our help to build the brand.

For many years the guys at the newly formed men’s clothing company called Label had been sourcing quality apparel from China and supplying high street stores such as Next and Marks and Spencer for their premium range. With an existing supply chain in place and a top fashion designer to create the bespoke range they decided to take the leap and launch their own shop and line of high quality men’s clothing.

We were asked to design the brand with a strong classic presence to be applied to labels, tags, hangers, internal signage and the shop facade. We also created 3D renders to visualise the shop fittings and flow.

A very social brand

Waltham Forest traditionally holds a series of family entertainment events throughout the year and wanted to align them as a linked program of events under the umbrella title of ‘Get Together’.

We created the over arching ‘Get Together’ brand first which used a series of concentrated dots positioned to express the concept of coming together. Individual identities were then created for each event to work harmoniously with the parent brand. The project was rolled out across printed, online and outdoor media.

The back of the document contains advert listings for the properties they are currently marketing.
